Congress to make WhatsApp free forever for Indian youth

New Delhi. In order to secure the support of youth of India ahead of the 2014 general elections, Congress party is planning to pay for WhatsApp subscription of all youth (youth; as defined by the general perception and not the general secretaries of Congress).

Sources say that WhatsApp rejected the Congress party’s proposal to change its logo

WhatsApp is a popular smartphone messenger service that is free for a limited period of time before one starts paying for it, like freedom of speech in the Indian constitution.

“This will be a game-changer like the Direct Cash Transfers,” Congress leader and I&B Minister Manish Tewari said, “This will also be a kind of cash transfer, where we will transfer money to WhatsApp and ask them to make this service free for Indian youth.”

To win the support of those who have already exhausted their free period and are paying for WhatsApp, the party has promised to reimburse those charges as well. Since the charges are low, such as $0.99 USD per year, Congress is hopeful of winning over youth of India at affordable prices.
